Pictured is the over growth of weeds and nettles at back of my home. Even though the gras cutters do this area regularly they never attend to this mess, 6th June
Every year this area at the back of 53 54 and 55 Woody Close dh87hn is left to grow wild with nettles and weeds. The weeds have pushed through the concrete up to the car parking area above. The wall surrounding the car park is showing deep cracks. I spoke to an official from the council regarding this over a year ago but still nothing done.

The back Street between east and west parade has lots of rubbish dumped outside various properties, 16th June
Both the back Street between east and west parade, and the front of east parade constantly have rubbish strewn across them. The rubbish is either being dumped there by the same properties each time (electrical goods, wood, metal, carpets etc.) 12 and 13 east parade. Or being blown around by the wind (household waste). I have also witnessed on more than one occasion, a car visiting 13 east parade and throwing rubbish from the door or window. There is also occasions of dog fouling in the back Street around the same area, as well as graffiti around the same location. We believe at this current time that there are up to 13 people living in 13 east parade (a 3 bed terraced house). This is currently exasperating the problem of rubbish and graffiti around the streets.
